Any guesses on what the future will look like for X Wedge parts?

Krazy horse posted on Facebook yesterday that they have just purchased 10 M3Ws that are spec-able should anyone be interested.

I know the 'V' angle is not the same, but what a pity they could not have done a deal with Moto Guzzi to supply the 1400cc engines. They could have supplied a decent bevel drive too. 96 CV (71 kW) - 6.500 rpm and torque 121 Nm - 3.000 rpm. Currently Euro 4 but I can't see them not getting Euro 5. On the California has traction control and 2 channel ABS. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/10/23/California-1400-Engine-2013-06.jpg)

There may be newer information, but my understanding is that the 1400 is being discontinued. Not only does it not meet Euro 5 but California sales have been poor.

I had California 1400 for two years and that’s a great engine! That looks ideal for Morgan: https://youtu.be/9EGFk7RybH0

Now your talking! That would be ample power and I bet smooth.

This Indian engine suggested would be perfect, water cooled, overhead cam, just shame its unit construction  ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/10/25/F9CBD4EE-44BF-49E3-9311-27C7BC1D1AC2.png)

OK, has anyone tried a steam engine? Lots of torque.
